May is here. We open our hearts to heat and light to witness the comingof Beltane.

From the back garden, this is Biophilic - a feel-good seasonal celebration of one healing year in a Scottish perennial pollinator garden.

More than a gardening podcast, Biophilic meanders through pollination with loving and gently holistic vignettes to sustainable wellness.

Each episode winds its way around imperfect small tasks for right now and grander plans for the future, offering encouragement to spend a little time outside each day.

So tap follow and join me, Angela Wallace, as we journey into the world of Biophilic.

Hit follow and I'll be back with another episode soon.
